NASB | 1 Corinthians 15:27 For HE HAS PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET. But when He says, "All things are put in subjection," it is evident that He is excepted who put all things in subjection to Him. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 15:27 For HE (the Father) HAS PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS (Christ's) FEET. But when He says, "All things have been put in subjection [under Christ]," it is clear that He (the Father) who put all things in subjection to Him (Christ) is excepted [since the Father is not in subjection to His own Son]. [Ps 8:6] |

Bible Note: Hello, Hank. Of course "modern" does not mean "all" translations. It means modern ones. As you may know, Jehovah's Witnesses have only been using the New World Translation of the Greek Scriptures since 1950, and the complete one since 1961. So much of the understanding was gained from other older translations. Further, Jehovah's Witnesses have the rights to print the KJV, the ASV and Byington's Bible. 1) Notice this comment from the preface of the Living Bible: "Whenever the author's exact words are not translated from the original languages, there is a possibility that the translator, however honest, may be giving the English reader something that the original writer did not mean to say." 2) The American Standard Version of 1901 used the name Jehovah almost 7,000 times. However, its successor, the Revised Standard Version of 1952 completely removed it. Why? They cited Jewish tradition. (Matthew 15:6) However, Psalm 83:18 clearly reveals God's will: "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the Most High over all the earth." (Psalm 83:18; Matthew 6:9; John 12:28; 17:26, KJV) 3) Reasoning from the Scriptures, published by Jehovah's Witnesses, uses 28 different Bible translations. If you have been reading my posts, you'll see that I rarely used the New World Translation. Stokey. |
